The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
Pros: 🚀 Unique Concept and Gameplay Mechanics Cargo Commander introduces a fresh and innovative concept, combining platforming with cargo retrieval mechanics in the vastness of space.
Only by snatching these green-glowing boxes can you progress through Cargo Commander’s ‘story’, which essentially revolves around climbing the greasy corporate pole from Deckswab Trainee to Boss by collecting new types of cargo.
+ graphics are okay (how to make space and metal looking awesome?!
Other Drawbacks: 🎶 Sound Design and Music While the game features atmospheric sound design and music, some players may find the audio elements lacking in diversity or impact.
My only gripe is that this game seems like it would be a good fit for kids, but if you tap a key/button (it has full controller support) too many times or hit a certain key, your character suddenly starts spouting profanities (which are also flashed around your character).
Theme by theme
Every theme is scored by what reviewers actually said about it, not just whether they recommended the game.
Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway. One more theme was raised by fewer than 6 sampled reviews and is not shown.
